Yes Tee or that Hole in the Wall greasyspoon across the street.. OH SHit.. it was a funky pimpjunkie bar across the street that sold weed

Hold up that greasyspoon had the best fish sammiches. . .hold up I'm really flashing back now. . . man I used to come out of Zanz about 11 a.m on a Sunday in the 80's. . . . sometimes Tee Scott would still be killing it. . .but I knew at 11 a.m. I could get some of that whiting before I jumped on the 49 bus home. . .

See, now I miss the kitchen at The Peppermint. That was a cool spot, the old heads would be up front in the bar area, the dance club was in the back and the restaurant/takeout was on the side. Damn shame that place went down the way it did after the original owner passed.

Speaking of greasy spoons, can't tell you how many nights on our way back up the hill we'd stop at the ole Harris Diner for some late night grub, mmm, mmmm, good!

---

I lived in there too..The Mint..The Peppermint..
was the spot.. I used to get food to take home before the kitchen closed
Hey Leslie we partied at the same spots.. I have to meet you I might already know you other then being on this site...

---

We have definitely crossed path's at some point - LOL!

Wait, what was that spot in Orange across the street from Sir Richard's? Yes I admit I got dragged to the show at Sir Richard's and saw the infamous Outlaws! You gotta be from Essex County to even know!

Sophisticated Ladies and Gents, then of course Burt's Living Room. All these spots had dancefloors and folks would be up in there partying. Stuff Magazine anyone??

---

Crab Night at Town Talk on Central Ave..
Crab Night at Keen Korners..
Marlos, the dance floor is always PACKEDPACKED to the ASS!!! music is bangin..

Lets not forget Ms.G's.. omg! that place had good music but small is the floor.. Zante's that is a cool spot.. Devert Ross is the DJ there and he spins house music if you ask..

Right, remember that place, I never went up in there - never wanted to. I remember one late night my girl and I were coming back up the hill and we passed by La Sala and saw this FINE brotha walking outta there - we always said we were gonna go up in there, but ultimately we were scared of them Spanish chicks trying to jump us.

Okay what was that other place in Orange/East Orange on William Street?

I liked the dancefloor in Club America.. did you know that the owner of Zanzibar owned Club America.. reason is that Miles Berger was a mogul in Newark..
